  2. Irreducible polynomial - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreducible_polynomial

    In mathematics, an irreducible polynomial is, roughly speaking, a polynomial that cannot be factored into the product of two non-constant polynomials.The property of irreducibility depends on the nature of the coefficients that are accepted for the possible factors, that is, the ring to which the coefficients of the polynomial and its possible factors are supposed to belong.

  3. Factorization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factorization

    In mathematics, factorization (or factorisation, see English spelling differences) or factoring consists of writing a number or another mathematical object as a product of several factors, usually smaller or simpler objects of the same kind. For example, 3 × 5 is an integer factorization of 15, and (x2)(x + 2) is a polynomial ...

  4. Factorization of polynomials - Wikipedia

    If one of these values is 0, we have a linear factor. If the values are nonzero, we can list the possible factorizations for each. Now, 2 can only factor as 1×2, 2×1, (−1)×(−2), or (−2)×(−1). Therefore, if a second degree integer polynomial factor exists, it must take one of the values p(0) = 1, 2, −1, or −2. and likewise for p(1).

  5. Factorization of polynomials over finite fields - Wikipedia

    The polynomial P = x 4 + 1 is irreducible over Q but not over any finite field. On any field extension of F 2, P = (x + 1) 4. On every other finite field, at least one of −1, 2 and −2 is a square, because the product of two non-squares is a square and so we have; If =, then = (+) ().

  6. Polynomial expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynomial_expansion

    In mathematics, an expansion of a product of sums expresses it as a sum of products by using the fact that multiplication distributes over addition. Expansion of a polynomial expression can be obtained by repeatedly replacing subexpressions that multiply two other subexpressions, at least one of which is an addition, by the equivalent sum of products, continuing until the expression becomes a ...

  9. Fermat's factorization method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat's_factorization_method

    Squares are always congruent to 0, 1, 4, 5, 9, 16 modulo 20. The values repeat with each increase of a by 10. In this example, N is 17 mod 20, so subtracting 17 mod 20 (or adding 3), produces 3, 4, 7, 8, 12, and 19 modulo 20 for these values. It is apparent that only the 4 from this list can be a square.
